Cryptic...
So you like the Japanese lore of animation and ideals? I don't blame you, around 95% of people indorse a anime acknowledgement and try to embody within. Talk to Mr. Tezuka and you'll see how it's done. Originality I mean, you'll find how to make a good piece of flash.
Not a bad movie so far, but the music, the storyboard and the overall plot is not suited and I'll tell you why:
This is a sound pitch varied for not mystery but for purpose. His purpose is typically to be a creation and an offspring of much cloned work.
However this purpose isn't a mystery and therefore won't construct a world around. In NGE you saw how nothing made sense until the end and you look back thinking it's not what you thought at first. You begin to imagine why you thought.
A good way is to use the music to trail off the people's thoughts, don't use use words but actions. They are much more louder and direct.
The bird killing is no something unseen and was kinda confusing to place. He's a machine but kills the simpliest of things. Machines don't have simple tasks, that's why humans live.
''What is the use of a bird who cannot fly'' he says. I say ''Who is the used one without wings to fly? Is it the bird of the past or the machine of the future? he's more dead than the creature''.
Ah reprogrammed. Good stuff, I was beginning to wonder if he'd be a mindless drone to human tampering. He's now a, what, fighter? This seems VERY familiar...here is something you gotta remember: The flashes are not meant to be a staring contest, so please try to get round a zooming in sequence, I get the face within half a sec.
HAHAHA Sephiroth was in this? Didn't know he'd show up but he does, sporting a very long quiff. He trying to beat Dan Hibiki?
And along comes a guy who could possibly be Capt. Crunch's arch enemy! The guy you're saying...looks like Neo. Now it's Panzer Dragoon's Pet and Street of Rage's Claw and a woman...WILL YOU STOP THE RIPOFFS!?!
WHY is he shaking that gun? HE'S A TRAINED KILLER REMEMBER?!? F*** the relationships, even if she's an angelic ripoff.
See I don't actually have a good sense of drawing or graphics, but I know how to make a good storyline and all I'd need is a good designer, because nobody would like me to go and produce ''Stick Man 2403.65: I'm boring''.
You are a good flash animator, something this site stands for, but in my reviews you're nothing but a piece of cake trying to put the icing on. Maybe you taste good, or maybe you're rotten. I don't eat cakes but I can sure eat one if it's presentable.
All I'm going to do is wait until the next one and see if my ramble has taught you the moral here: Try to imagine a creation within fixed emotions and reach a distination beyond speculation that's controlled to limitations only you can feel. Respect your inner thoughts throughout the outside world, not the other way round.
A good piece, but flawed by the same 95% of flashes: Originality. And the fact I've explained above.
